We're getting to the end of another year. Hopefully it will continue to end in YOUR FAVOR instead of going all wack and out of control, but I can't promise you a thing. I've noticed around this time of year magazines have the EXACT same themes every single time; they consist of the following:
- holiday foods to prepare this season (it's always pretty much the same thing with maybe ONE new twist)
- New BODY (work out plans)
- New exercise equipment that's created (info-mercials up the waaazzoooo on TV)
- New relationship advice (how to plan for that special someone for the upcoming Hallmark made-up "holiday" AKA: Valentines Day).
NEW NEW NEW NEW NEW.....they always put the word "new" in front of something "old" because they know that there's only so much NEW stuff they can come up with for that next year. Don't deny it either because you know it's true. The goal for everyone I ever encounter in life about the NEW upcoming year is this: SELF IMPROVEMENT
Whatever level of improvement you're looking for, there will be something to help you go into that direction. But folks lets be honest with eachother. You've read my blog long enough now to understand where I might be going with this, almost 100% of the time (unless you're literally dealing with a life/death situation), you will not change as much as you HOPE, because in the end you're always going to be stuck with yourself and not too many people like dramatic changes in their lifestyle (unless it's SUPER NEGATIVE)....or if you're in jail etc. Since there's not too much you can do while you're in there anyways.
So when you're thinking about picking up that magazine that's about to tell you the "SECRET" to a happy new you this new year....put it back on the stand and know that without it, you will really FACE your own reality of what CHANGE you want and need in your life and save $5 too!
Moral: not all lessons are learned through large magazine companies, change yourself on your own first.
